    The National Institute of Aviation Research (National Institute of Aviation Research) uses API Radian laser trackers to calibrate large ABB robots to improve robot accuracy and comply with ISO 9283 certification standards
    .


    (See the picture above)


    In modern industrial processing, especially in the processing and assembly of aviation and aerospace components, the repeatability accuracy requirements of robots are getting higher and higher, so that the ex-factory accuracy provided by robot manufacturers cannot meet the processing needs
    .


    Relying on its own patented technology and products, API has developed effective methods for robot performance testing and calibration, providing a perfect solution for improving the accuracy of robots


    API robot calibration process

    Use advanced Radian laser tracker with end target system (STS six-dimensional probe, AT active target or SMR target ball) and robot calibration software to carry out the process of simulation→measurement→calibration→compensation→verification
    .


    The Radian laser tracker measures the spatial data during the robot movement, and the robot calibration software records and calculates, and performs data compensation through the black box (code translator).


    Robot performance verification

    The performance of the robot is quantified according to the ISO 9283 standard
    .


    Robot performance verification is the process of identifying the real geometric parameters existing in the robot kinematics structure, such as the relative position of the robot kinematic joint links


    Robot calibration

    Typical applications to improve robot accuracy include machining, drilling, grinding, welding, cutting, inspection, deburring and 3D printing
    .


    The accuracy of the robot can be improved by providing seamless and precise offline robot programming


     

    Robot path planning

    API's Robocal software provides DH kinematics model and spatial error compensation model (VEC), which improves the accuracy of the robot through the collected calibration data
    .


    The existing robot path program can automatically update and drive the robot to its calibrated position


     

     

    Robot measurement software (RMS)

    API's RMS software provides a perfect solution for the improvement and optimization of robot accuracy performance
    .


    RMS can be provided as a robot performance measurement (RPM) module or a combined robot calibration (RoboCal) and robot path planning (PPE) module
